This is not a conversation about guns. This is a conversation about items that have withstood abuse that are near unbreakable.

Some items I have heard referenced as AK47 of:

Gerber MP600: It's a multi tool

Fruit of the Loom men's briefs.

I buy a six-pack from Walmart every year. I don't think I've ever been so loyal to a brand.

How do six briefs only last you a year?!?for my benchmark, If any set of underwear lasts leas than three years, it’s not a good deal.

[–] bob_lemon@feddit.org 9 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (1 children)

I would assume that they have more than six briefs in total.

[–] HomerianSymphony@lemmy.world 5 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (1 children)

Yeah, exactly.

They last two or three years and I throw them out as they wear out. Six briefs is my annual top up. They come in packs of six.

Mate I've got briefs that are two decades old, and they were from Primark! (Cheap shit clothing shop)

If I had to buy a new pack of 6 every year I'd drop the company like a hot turd πŸ˜‚

At the moment I quite like Dim ones. Shit name, but I've had them 5 years and they're still going strong

I don't think I would do that. I kinda like having new-ish underwear.
